Among the many things discussed in the meeting, Mr Twum, in his presentation, stressed on the pillars underpinning their strong track record of operational success, which will continue to drive contributions going forward.
The key success factors, he said, remain the presence of experienced technical and management team, robust organizational governance and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) footprint which he elaborated on further during the discussion, the country’s significant resource potential, and their presence in a tier-one mining jurisdiction.
